• Enterprises expect security policy compliance. Compliance is typically achieved by using technologies such as 802 1.x based machine and user authentication, IPSec/SSL VPNs, Smartcards, 2 factor authentication, certificate based authentication

• Moving to desktop virtualization creates an access layer in the data center that needs to be secured similar to the Campus access

• To enable BYOD in highly flexible hybrid deployments, device profiling, access restrictions and versatile remote access solutions are required

• Antivirus solutions for VDI environment are required without impacting TCO
